great cry nlmail that the General was al
lowing Indians in his Department to commit
murder and crime and that w ithout an effort
on hi part to uppre-; or stop it. Suhae
ipieiit devflopmenu proved that the murders
and theft were committed hy New Mexico
Indians, over whom General "ivautz had no
control. We say subsequent development
proved this because the plunder was found
in tli iMs.$es.Moii of these Indian and in
every instance they were tracked into New
Meico. Agent Clum, who wished to be- i
come a Second 2saitoleon. recommended the
removal of these In. Han to Arizona, and
thn.ugh briery and tine promises, they were
induced to come to the ijan Carlos "where
they, after a residence of three or four
monthf, became restless and left for the
mountain an 1 probably plunder. They had
110 more taan left San Carlos before the de
parture wa known to the .Military oflicer
stiitioned on tlut Reservation and telegraph
ed to Headquarters, and soldiers started in
pursuit which has 'erminated mot satisfac-fori!-.
It will now be seen by every unpre
judiced mind, that by having an ollicerof the
army, stationed on tin Indian Reservation
at .-Mti t ar.o, who w in center and report
prompt!, any outbreak of the red brethren
who are'sjimoscil to liw there that ti.
suppose I
Commanding Geneni! can take time by the
lorelH-k and great good result therefioni.
The Indians were making for the Chiri
eahun inoiintnins at last accounts with the
troops in pursuit, they having arrived at
Soldier's Farewell.
Lieutenants Ruckcrand Hanna have done
much hard and good service iu the southern
portion of our Territory aud deserve great
credit for the same. With a fair show we
believe, General Ivaut?. will satisfy the whole
people, even those of Pima county, that he
is equal to the emergencies, let them be ever
so great.

Cami Vkisdk, Sept. lSth, 1377.
EtiiTon Mixku: A short time since I
1 saw au article in the Army and Navy
Journal stating that Ostium I'asha, of the
Turkish ai my, was Huzaiiic, a former .Mar

i:iu: KEi.ir.io.v or Tin: Hindoos.
The most ancient book known to tlie
world is the "Vedas,' which embodies the
religious principles of the ancient Hindoos
of India. If the oldest religion is to have
the preference, as many contend that it
should, on account of its anthjuity, then
this system should be considered the true
one. The human soul, before being finally
ab.-orbed in God, has to pass through a
series of transmigrations aud journeys in
different worlds and through the bodies of
tunny dilfercut animals. Those who have
not done well go to the Moon or Sun, and
Mime return to the Earth and enter the
i bodies of dog, worms and adders. There
are intermediate places between here and
' the Sun and Moon where the souls ot those
who were not very bad go and spend a sea
son of probation. The purgatory of the
Catholics was borrowed from this ancient
religion.
The Veda"; snvs: '-If a man hns done
deeds thai load (o the dun lid goci to that
world, if to the Creator he goes to tho world
of the Creator." It teaches also that ani
mats' souls go also to other worlds and en-
Ijoy themselves there according to the de
Igree of their intelligence, and passing
j thence to other spheres they become purer
j and more enlightened,
j The Euytians borrowed this doctrine from
j the Hindoos and incorporated it into their
; religion. They embalmed the bodies of
their relatives because they believed the
.-ou I did not leave the body until it was en
tirely decomposed, hence the mummies we
sne in iiiun'iiins, and thev wanted to keen
j the Spirits in the bodies as long as possible
j before starting on their perignnations
through animals.
; The Romans burned their dead in order
j to destroy tlie body at once and set the
i oul at liberty to proceed on its way to a
higher destiny. j
The ancient Greeks also had an idea of
the transmigration of souls, borrowed from
the Hindoo! through the Egytians. Py
thagoras taught his followers" not to oat
Hesh nor to abuse an animal, because, said
lie, it may contain the soul of your father
or mother.

The object of this mass and invocation is
to avert the happening of an earthquake in
San Francisco during this year. If by this
means they succeed in staving it off for this
season, the Arch-Hihop proposes to take
similar precaution annually, and thus pre-!

In New
Remedies, Dr. Talmy
; prescribes for the
nr.w tVnm -ft on,,
diarrhoea or hot coun
grams of Inclose, or sugar of milk daily.
He administers it in the simplest way the
sugar, dissolved in a little water, or a a
draught in the course of the day. An ex
cellent mode of administration consists in
putting the doe of milk to bo takeu into
half a liter or two literi of milk, according
to the habits and the digestive capacities of
the patient. The treatment is spread over
several mouths, diminishing the dose as nu
trition becomes more considerable and eas-1
ier. According to M. Talons little work,
' Muu"sheI by (. ocros l'ans, the endemic ,
t diarrluea of hot climate is the result of a-
functional lesion of the liver, which results

Stiiaxoe Inkatcation. An old hen at
Barnard's stables discovered a litter of
young kittens the other day, immediately
claimed them as her own, wouldn't listen
to the expostulations of the mother cat, nor
of the men about the stable, but insisted on
hovering and chirking to the kitteus as if
they were really the product of her own
eggs, and she so continues to set and cluck,
except when the men throw her out and
shut the doors until the old cat has n chance
to feed her babies. As soon as the doors
are open anil she can get buck goes at old
tabby and makes the fur lly until she regains
jKiisession of the nest. Strange things are
hapiHining in these latter days. Old gob
blers set on egys and hatch young turkeys,
old hens nurse young kitten, and what may
we expect next; surely the world must be
approaching its liual consumatiou.
